We put it in all the bedrooms. I always loved the dark flooring, but had no idea how the dirt shows so easily. I really recommend to go a little lighter to others. I love my flooring but don't the the upkeep

I recommend 100% urethane construction adhesive along with nailing (pre-drill) two nails at each side and two in the middle of tread.STEP DOWN AND STAIR TREAD APPLICATIONS Use stair nosing to finish a single stair edge or for a step down application. Stair parts should be nailed and glued for safety. Due to the complexity of stair installation and local building codes, it is highly recommended to consult with a professorial flooring installer or the manufacturer for stair installation advice. Thank you for your inquiry.

This nosing measures; 2-3/8" wide x 13/16" at the bullnose, 7/16" thick that rest on the subfloor.I would be glad to help you with further details if needed. Please call me directly, Mark at 1-800-366-4204 Ext # 4857My hours are Mon - Fri, 10 AM – 6:45 PM ESTThank you for your inquiry.
